What is contraceptive-experience-dashboard?

This repository contains an interactive dashboard that explores contraceptive use among women in the United States. The project looks at which methods women stop using, why they stop, and how usage patterns shift over time. It is built with Streamlit, a Python tool for creating web-based data apps, and draws on survey data to present its findings visually. The dashboard addresses three core questions. It identifies which contraceptive methods were discontinued due to dissatisfaction. It explores the specific reasons women gave for stopping. It also tracks how contraceptive use changed between different survey periods. The findings are presented in a format that lets users interact with the data directly in their browser. The project reports several key findings. Among women who had used the pill, 34.1% discontinued because of dissatisfaction. For the IUD, that figure was 32.8%. Side effects were the most common reason given for stopping both the pill and the IUD. The data also showed that use of emergency contraception and IUDs increased between the survey periods covered. The code is written in Python and relies on Pandas for data handling, Matplotlib and Seaborn for visualizations, and Streamlit to build the dashboard interface. To run the dashboard locally, a user installs the required Python libraries from a requirements file and launches the app. The repository does not include further setup details or documentation about the data source beyond what is described in the findings.
